Little tidbit from the Angelos era in Tom Davis's in booth interview yesterdee. He mentioned how he got lucky to be working the night of the 2014 ALE clinching game. He explained Gary Thorne was off that night, but tried to get back on the call given they were likely to clinch, and the Orioles denied his request. Why wouldn't you want your best guy on a game like that? Just speaks to the old school/high compliance esque culture that's plagued this organization.

I'm OK giving Jackson some run but he's not a starter. Might be a future bench guy.

Utility infielder

His playing the outfield is like putting a round peg into a square hole. At least He's not playing center.

Gotta be tough to hit a guy with an electric arm and no idea where it's going.

I really like Austin Jackson.

The guy is a solid defender.

No chance Allen or Adams can get Jackson in.

I mean, trying a bunt squeeze is probably your best chance to score with Allen at bat.

Not like it matters, but don't like the steal attempt there if only because it means Adams will lead off next inning. Just get his AB out of the way.

I agree with you.

Kind of like having the pitcher leading off an inning back in the day.

Saw a shot of the dugout after the beat down yesterday. Gunnar and Mountcastle were walking towards the tunnel laughing and joking. Then they showed Westburg looking legitimately angry. We need more guys like Westburg.
